Individuality has been toned down ?

I don't like the sound of that... that's the hallmark of the series.

It hasn't that's why it's disrespectful. From the videos and streams and also the people playing it it's pretty obvious that players like Pirlo and Ribery feel exactly like them.

Oh ok. Anything that threatens individuality would really upset me. The series should be moving towards more individuality if anything. That what sets it apart from that other (crappy) game. That other game is so generic.
 
Great stream from Bitter was a good laugh that penalty from Santos had me in stitches when Buffon dived high and the ball rolled along the ground. :LOL:

Player individuality is ever more present then before scary how Pirlo looks so close to real life even his movement off the ball.

Quite alot of glitches in this build though for instance AI seem to rush to far ahead for through balls also first touch from them weird at times. On the whole im quite impressed played fifa for years but starting to see a PES i feel that deserves some attention finally after all these years.

Have to say once this game is refined its got a strong case this fox engine looks really good exciting times ahead i feel.
 
It was good lads.

I am still in FIFA mode since FIFA 08 so trying to transition back. Need to figure out the moves, I have no idea how to do skill moves, or off the ball runs.

Didn't even know how to jockey until before.

If anyone can link to me to tips and tricks page that would be helpful.

Will stream again tonight, will let you know

Putting my preorder through for PC version,

That 2nd drible is a joy to make in this game, De Rossi is a beast to do those, just using body weight and physics like irl, really something that feels completly next gen and unprecendent in any football game at that degree.

Btw how do u control the ball like that(1st drible)?

Hi hanakuka. Please accept my apologies, It seems like I still don't have enough privileges here to PM" someone. I don't mean to bother you at all.... But I was just wondering if you could share the demo with me. I know I'm new, but please know that I'd delete your info account as soon as I download the demo. I'd totally understand if you didn´t do it, I'm just trying to find a way to play it.

I have a few games that I've got from the store, if you are interested, I wouldn't mind to let you download some of them.

Thanks!

I can't judge the individuality much, the ratings are poor and there is big responsiveness issues.

it's always shown most at full release.

Imo individuality is only fully enjoyed after ure completly adapted to the game, atm i do see some cool stuff like Pirlos great passing, Ribery pace and drible, etc etc... BUT i know after i get used to it like PES6 ill be able to notice if X player has 90 or 86 for Drible accurancy for instance, to get to that degree of feeling imo we have to be 100% adapted to the game, wich we cleary wont be in this beta. It will come in time...

Great move. The mods will make it 10x better. And it's already looking great.

Edit: I got mine in at Shopto... but it will be available via Steam on Day 1 as well.

what? of course they did. this was the official demo until they decided to pull it at the last minute. how do you think sony got a hold of it at all?
Click to expand...

If I recall correctly, Adam or someone else on Twitter said that Sony would have been sent various builds during the year. Not necessarily a build earmarked for release as a demo.

Konami have absolutely nailed Pirlo and the smooth effortless way he plays.

There are some lovely heading animations in this. First time I've enjoyed headers in PES for a long time.

Still wish Konami would provide the option to skip replays without having to mash the start button every time.

It's a gentle button press :SMUG:

Reminds me of that Seinfeld episode where someone (George maybe) gets upset because he had to shake the orange juice before drinking. Jerry picks up the bottle and gives it a gentle shake "Yeah man this is really hard" lol. Gold.

flick the right stick and then move the left stick

imagine the right stick is your body weight, and the left stick are your legs, that is how you know what directions to push

Ok, I didn't play many games, but I'll give some of my first impressions. Firstly I apolagize for not having a very good english, it's hard for me to make a more elaborate and longer post. But before doing it it's important to say that there has been a long time since the last time I played a footy game. I gave my copy of PES 2013 as a gift to my brother and I don't play Fifa 12 (didn't bother to buy Fifa13).

I think the last footy game I played was Fifa, despite the fact that I'm a PES fan, and because of this I was shooting when I was trying to make a long ball pass to a teammate:YAWN:.

I just didn't get confused doing the opposite (I mean making a long ball pass when I meant to shoot) because I simply didn't have the chane to shoot at the goals opponent, it's really, really hard to get a chance to score in this game. I have been playing as Bayern against Santos, and when I have possession, the first big challenge I have is to pass through midfield. The CPU midfield AI has a very good sense of positioning, there's no much alternative rather than passing around or even backwards. As soon as I give the ball to Ribery, the opponent defence suddenly grow up on me,there are usually two players pressing Ribery wich is a good thing the AI has that idea that it's important to not give much space to a dangerous player like Ribery.

That challenge of trying to find some man unmarked that might allow you to reach the space around the big area is one of the most positive things on this demo. The game forces you to play a more build up game, it's slow (I'm playing on +1 speed wich is fine for me even though some moves feel a bit sluggish), and just like in real football, you can't sprint in the midfield (unless you have a huge free space on a counter, wich is a situation that it may be very rare), you are forced to just move the left stick, and the good side of it is that players can make more tight and small turns and protect the ball better than previous games. I also feel that a good first touch is always important, you can't really keep R1 held down specialy before your player recieves the ball, as it may result on a bad touch that would make easy for the defence to anticipate to your move and steal the ball.

Despite some bugs, overall the game is really good and it has an immense potential. Playing PES 2014 is really something that feels fresh. I mean when you play it you know it is PES, but it's completetly in another league in many aspects compared to previous versions.

The technical side of the game had a HUGE improvement. Graphics are more sharp and clean, colors are vibrant in a good way, it doesn't look cartoonish at all, and the lighting is awesome, realistic and very dynamic, you can see that in replays with the camera set on an up close action, from one side the sunlight is intense and from the other side is the opposite, even the color vibrance varies from hot to cold, it's very dynamic. The pitch textures are awsome too, it looks great and easily more detailed than the previous version even on a wider camera, and up close it is simply beatiful, true 3d grass I think. Stadium has also a great atmosphere as well.

Animations are also fantastic, very realistic movements despite the bad response at times. I would say it is more than a generation leap on this department. The only problem with animations are some passing animations, but overall they are fine.

As I said almost only positive things, I'll try to say some of the negative things of this demo:

- Even tho passing feels very organic (great ball physics), there's something very wrong with the through pass. The game simply can't read your intented target most of the time.

- Another problem with through pass is that even the CPU AI sometimes pass though the ball, I mean the AI simply forget the ball and let it passed behing after a through pass. The awareness of players on through passes is really bad, to a point that it seems to be a bug.

- When marking I don't feel much control over players just moving with the left stick and using jockey as an attempt to block a shot or even to tackle the man on the ball by pressing X 2x. When I only move with the left stick, I feel that players respond better with than without the ball

- I am missing the right stick to manually switch the cursor. The cursor as well has a minor lag when switching from one player to another, the lag is not only present on some players movements, but also on the cursor.

- There are a few ignored fouls

- Framerates on the intro scene are very low

This is all atm. I hope you enjoy it

Well said bro
 
I don't know if its just me, but I played only ona game Italy vs Germany and it felt like it was from a more advanced build compared to Bayern vs Santos, a lot less bugs with the lack of players awereness of through pass (or any ball passed into space using manual L2) and Germany plays ok while Santos plays in a bit unfair sa
way tbh.
 
I just visited the PC section regarding the modding capabilities and became aroused. :APPLAUD: I advise others to do likewise, the visting part. :P
 
AND MORE IMPORTANTLY, Jenkey is back and he provided details on why he left.. He's on the PC thread currently, so go there.. I want to stay on topic.. Just thought you ppl should know. :CONFUSE::SMUG: PS3/XBOX PES14 can be just as amazing as 'the other platform'.
